what i do to resize is open the pics in paint. go to edit, then resize. ill usually go 12% of the original pic since my camera takes em at about 1mb. hope that helps and good luck :)

So, I tried to not get crazy with the eyeliner on this one, since I didn't like my last entry. Just kept the contour, and picked bright colors. Eh.

I think the max size of the pic (width or length) can be 600px, at least that's the max size for my photos when I upload them here.

Are you linking them from somewhere, or uploading?

My first challenge, I tried to link them from my blog, and I copied the wrong link. You need teh one that actually has heightxxxwidthxxx in it, rather than just the upload link.

Uploading? Yeah, just have to resize them small enough. I hate that.

This is very Arabian! Reminds me of the Haifa Wehbe look with the blue and gold.


Thank you a lot! That's very nice to hear.

My first time uploading photos here, so let's see how it goes :)
I was very inspired by the Arabic theme... and yes, the brushes as well LOL.
All 3 looks were created for this challenge specifically. My eyes aren't exactly bleeding, but not far from it either :D I just can't help loving glitters.

Don't use Paint to resize... it distorts the photos. Download the free program IrfanView (you can get it from CNet) and it has an easy resize function. Max size on height and width is 600... so if you have a portrait, you change the height to 600 and the program will automatically change the other side to match. Then save it as a jpg and you're good to go.

I figured I would throw my submission into the pot for this challenge as well :mrgreen: I did this look a while back (as you can tell I'm chubbier in these photos then I am now :oops: ) but it's the only Arabic makeup I have ever really tried so I figured, why not? CC welcome and appreciated. Good luck everyone!
